so the gist of what your saying is there arent enough goals? and when a goal isn't being scored nothing is happening?

i'm a man of action, you sound like a man of BORING!!!


dont worry about me i like my action. would getting into massive argument in the second game of a set in tennis action enough for ya. stupid prick was calling me a liar so i gave him a piece of my mind.

I'm not saying 'nothing is happening" i'm just saying "NOTHING GOOD IS HAPPENING"
shots on goal are good too... as long as someone does a FLIP BRO!!!



shoulda just jumped the net and gone the old fisty cuffs....

Played footy last year and was lucky enough to be part of a 12 on 12 brawl... noone got reported...

lol 9 blokes from each side just disappeared quicker than richmond fans when getting beat.

have you watched many games off soccer mate? plenty happens, just because it isnt near the goal line doesnt mean some exciting shit aint goin down.

nothing greater than the feeling when your team scores a goal. the anticipation leading up the goal makes it even sweeter. but you dont follow soccer so i guess you wouldnt know what it feels like.

i can see why many find soccer boring...

it is probably the same reason i find Rugby boring... I dont understand the sport, as a result of my lack of understanding i could not give 2 shits about it, as a result of both above i find it is dead boring :D

dunno what is so hard to understand.

dont trip people.
dont touch it with your hands while it is in play.
you cant be between the keeper/goal and the last defender when the ball is played to you. except when thrown to you in a thrown.

put the ball in the net

dead simple

and i agree rugby is boring. mainly cause i dont like it. this is league i am referring to. union is alrite

cant quite comprehend why if a defense is so crap they cant get the ball off the offense you should have to give the ball back to them

I used to mate, and SundayLeague.. but now am into GoalUnited.. fantastic online management game, the stadium building process and the youth system is unlike any other online soccer management game around. The deeper you get into the game the better it gets so it's always rewarding you for progress, and the developers are constantly improving the game. I highly recommend it if you like Soccer (and yes, I like Soccer lol).

I'm one of those poor souls who has lost about 10% of his life to soccer mgmt games like Championship Manager, USM and Football Manager just to name a few, so this is kind of refreshing as it's something completely different. Check it out ;)

well well well i thought you must have disappeared stazza. no doubt spending time figuring out how you will win DT

i have a goal united account but havent looked in a couple of weeks. the whole having to wait levels to build stuff is annoying imo

i have looked at goal united but i didnt sign up.. just something about it.. may look into it, but might just stick with HT for now :D

i used to play Championship Manager back in the day, bought FM2011 and have just found they have taken it way to far.. i just want to get in, buy a few players, sell a few players and have a laugh... FM11 basically needs some kind of astrophysicist degree ..

I can understand they have tried to make "the most realistic football sim" out there, but damn sometimes realism just gets in the way of good old fashion fun :D I want to play a football manager, not a media manager or some crap like it :D

Haha I average about 30 hours a week on DT mate, it's almost a full time job lol having an extremely addictive personality doesn't help my cause!

As for the having to wait levels to build stuff in GU - I have only been playing for two seasons (less than 6 months real time) and am nearly at level 40, with the most state of the art facilities you can get at level 39. It is a matter of understanding how the game works and finding the quickest possible way to build your money and inturn, your stadium. Don't be discouraged by the slowness of it early on as you struggle to build up your bank account - all the good stuff happens thereafter!

In my first season I finished top of Div III, in my second top of Div II, I am now looking forward to seeing what I can do in Div I against the best Australia has to offer :)

I agree to an extent Skyhook - I guess it comes down to a degree of personal enjoyment - I like to completely delve head first into FM and control every facet of the club I'm managing, I move through days on that in about as much time as it might take you to zip through an entire transfer period (but as you said - you get enjoyment out of buying, selling, playing a game on there).

I do agree the press conferences are a pain in the arse, less media interaction in the game or a more automated process in that facet would help lol
